2015 Toyota FT-1 Graphite Concept is a sight for sore eyes. It is of course a sports car but its design is as attractive as any other car by Toyota. In fact, even if you do not like sports cars, you should pay attention to this one, as it might change your car preference.
Exterior and Interior
The car does have muscles but they are all at the right places and give it a breathtaking look. The sheet metal is of carbon fiber. The hood is elongated – a feature that one can easily associate with sports cars. Such a hood also improves aerodynamics of a car. The headlights are not round but shaped like slits providing a sleek outlook. There is no grille and the sheet metal covers the area while at the bottom on either side there are two big air ducts. The air inlets on each side of the doors are subtle while the chrome bumper brings in color to the otherwise monochromatic exterior. Toyota has promised that you will get plenty of color options for the vehicle. The wheels are typically lightweight as they are made of aluminum alloy.
The interior is interesting to look at but you will miss bolstered seats. Rather, the seats are covered in leather and provide generic comfort. However, lack of cushioning has resulted in a good amount of interior space, on which many sports car compromise. The console consists of features ensuring security like air bags, brake assist, panic alarm, and traction control.
Engine and Mileage
